Chapter five hundred and fifty first English and French
Luo Zhuoying was born in 1896. This year he happened to be fifty years old. In ancient times, there was a saying that fifty-year-old knew destiny. For Luo Zhuoying, who had just passed his fiftieth birthday, because of his overseas expedition, this fifty-year-old
It also has special significance. The central government and the Xuebing Army reached a secret agreement. When the gmd surrendered power, Luo Zhuoying, who felt that he was deeply favored by Chiang Kai-shek, suffered for a long time. This was actually the reason that a large number of senior generals of the Central Army had
They felt that they should do something for the principal. However, their conscience told them that the right thing for them to do at this time was to respond to the call of the new government and not only take good care of themselves, but also take good care of their own troops.
, so as not to become a sinner of the nation and history. Everyone knows the principle, but if you want to do it, you will inevitably go through a painful struggle.
Outsiders have no way of knowing what kind of ideological struggle Luo Zhuoying went through to reach this point. However, after visiting the Pacific Fleet, he only had one thought left in his heart, and that was that he was deeply grateful. Fortunately, he did not choose to fight but
Choosing cooperation. Perhaps, his life will be different from now on - he thought this way, and he had a new perspective on his new life.
The anti-war situation in the north was eroding, while the south was doing better. Officers like Luo Zhuoying would naturally dig into the reasons. For example, those at the level of regiment commander and brigade commander only paid attention to the weapons and equipment of the cadet army, but they paid more attention to the management of the cadet army.
The weapons and equipment of the German weapon divisions under the Central Army are no worse than those of the Japanese army, right? Why can't they still defeat the Japs? Luo Zhuoying doesn't think it's because the officers and soldiers are afraid to fight. Then there is only one explanation. There is a problem in management.
The management of the Central Army is not rigorous, just like the civil engineering department, and the integrity of the officer corps is also exemplary. So what is the difference? When he was in China, Luo Zhuoying was not in the mood to think about this. When he came to Karachi, he began to seriously
Thinking about this problem. Bai Liusu's Marine Corps provided him with a reference. The Marine Corps was adapted from the original Third Military Division. The officers were all from the Guangzhou Army Academy. In addition to the basic equipment of the Army, there are also landing rubber boats, water and land
Tanks and other special equipment for landing operations, as well as a special team of water ghosts. Luo Zhuoying looked away after paying a little attention to these. What he focused on was the daily training of the Marines and their non-military life. In daily training, the Marines besides
Professional landing combat training, other training does not offer more tricks. The difference is that they have small-scale drills every week, and large-scale drills every month. Through drills, the collective strength of officers and soldiers is increased.
Luo Zhuoying deeply believes in the sense of honor and the establishment of a healthy atmosphere of comparison among the military services. In addition, the Marine Corps has more advantages than the Central Army, including night schools, reading clubs and other soldier organizations, and then every
A meeting to remember the bitter and think of the sweet will be held every week.
Bai Liusu was ordered by Ouyang Yun to provide the training manual required by Luo Zhuoying's department, but he did not interfere with the daily training of the department and its spare time life after training. Ouyang Yun originally also thought about adding political officers to the original Central Army, but after the war,
After an in-depth discussion between Feng Yuxiang and Chen Cheng, he temporarily gave up this plan.
Feng Yuxiang advised him to take his time, because the former Central Army was surrounded by mountains, and adding political officials could easily arouse the resentment of these officers. If it was done too hastily, it would arouse their vigilance. If it aroused their resistance, it would be unsightly.
Chen Cheng was not as frank as Feng Yuxiang, but he also believed that this step should be postponed and suggested that we wait until the troops adapt to their new identity. From the Central Army to the National Defense Force, they share the same name with the original local army. For the former officers and soldiers of the Central Committee,
It is extremely easy to create a psychological gap. Looking at the previous anti-Japanese wars, the performance of the former Central Army was much better than that of the local army. This is what the former Central Army was proud of. In their view, they enjoyed better
The treatment is taken for granted. Now, regardless of the previous record, they enjoy the same treatment. Although the treatment has improved, it is still not acceptable to the former Central Committee officers and soldiers. At this time, the placement of political officers will indeed easily cause dissatisfaction among the officer class.
and, on the contrary, it will affect the combat effectiveness of the troops.
Ouyang Yun listened to these opinions. Privately, he discussed the matter with Jiang Guangnai and thought that it was good: they were not afraid of not knowing the goods, but were afraid of comparing goods, so let them be verified by actual combat. Faced with the facts, they had no excuse.
Already?
In the eyes of Ouyang Yun and Jiang Guangnai, the former Central Army could be said to be full of shortcomings and was not a normal army at all. However, since the officers of the former Central Army thought this was normal, they could just treat it as normal for the time being.
Jiang Guangnai’s opinion was: “Let them organize things according to the original plan, but if they lose the battle because of this, then they can’t blame the high command for intervening.
Ouyang Yun and Jiang Guangnai had some bad intentions in having such an idea. It is normal if you think about it. The Xuebing Army almost single-handedly supported the current situation. How could they allow the former Central Army to be outside their control?
To put it bluntly, isn't this the danger of raising a tiger? Ouyang Yun does not believe that Chiang Kai-shek is really willing to be lonely. After all, this is not the first time that Chiang Kai-shek has played this trick of retreating in order to advance.
Troops from China to assist Australia are continuously marching into Karachi. Almost every day, a large number of empty fortresses roar over India. This naturally attracts great attention from the United Kingdom and Japan.
The Queen's government was forced to evacuate Great Britain and instead persisted in resistance in India. This was the biggest accident in the history of this time and space. It even lost its homeland, which did great harm to Britain's status in the Allies. In addition, Britain's delay in
Unable to organize troops to launch a counterattack against Malaysia, its status in the Pacific Theater gradually declined, and now the U.S. government does not consider the British factor when running the Australian War.
The Americans almost ignored the British factor in the Asian battlefield, but the British themselves were not willing to be left alone. Within the Allies, they and the exiled Free French government were brothers. Free France actually relied on the British, so at the instigation of the British,
They often had the idea of Ann Bos's French invasion. With the support of Ouyang Yun, Ang Bos's army now has more than 200,000 people and more than 300 Baiji dolphins. Originally, there were only three divisions in the army.
It is composed entirely of French people, and the rest are all from the French Indochina Federation, and they are mercenaries. The exile of the Free French in India has attracted French people from all over the world to come to the Far East. They are worried that they have no way to serve their country, and they have no way to revive this army.
The presence of French armed forces immediately aroused their strong interest, and they all went to Hanoi to sign up to join the army. Having a weak master and a strong servant was Angpos's biggest concern, so he naturally welcomed the arrival of these people with both hands. In just six months,
He created four new division-level units composed entirely of Frenchmen.
